Chapter 322: A Tight Battle Situation
Luozhou, the northeastern defense line.
More than seventy bronze-level professionals, and more than two hundred gray-iron class members, leaned behind this improvised defense line that had been poured with steel and concrete half a month ago, with tired expressions. Some people were praying quietly for something, and some people were taking the opportunity to eat some rations to replenish their strength, waiting for the next wave of demonic beasts to attack in the distance.
In front of the defensive line, on the flat ground hundreds of meters wide, it has been stained red with a large area of blood, and the corpses of demonic beasts can be seen everywhere.
Through the curtain of fine snow, in the distance, the figures of a group of repulsed demonic beasts loomed, and from time to time there was a whimpering sound of swallowing, which was terrifying.
Hungry, they are scrambling to eat the corpses of those killed in previous battles.
It was the temptation of these corpses that made the last batch of demonic beasts not attack desperately, but tried to attack a wave and then retreated in a hurry, taking a large amount of "food" by the way. Although some of them were frozen into ice due to the long time spent in the snow, this little trouble was nothing in front of the sharp teeth of the monsters.
Bite it up, crunchy!
However, it was clear to everyone present that the thirst for food of these monsters was simply endless.
It won't be long before they attack again.
The battle will only get more intense!
A few dozen meters behind the defensive line, there is a makeshift watchtower. Fu Chengjian, the president of the Pangu Guild, and Wang Mingwu, the vice president, were standing on it, looking at the situation in the distance, while discussing the next battle with gloomy faces.
"Fei Yang's statistics have just arrived, the potion has been almost consumed, and the durability of most of the soldiers' armor is also seriously worn, and there are only 5 bottles of repair oil left."
Wang Mingwu's mood was very heavy, in his opinion, if the attack of the demonic beast continued to maintain the strength of the day, then the Pangu Guild would be able to support until late tonight at most, and it would be difficult to continue.
Next, either fight for your life at the cost of a sharp increase in the casualty rate; Or simply give up and move to a safe place!
Either of these two options means a great loss.
Of course, Fu Chengjian also knew this, he was silent for a while, and sighed: "I thought that the guild's preparation for the beast tide was sufficient. Now it seems that they still underestimate their ferocity. ”
Wang Mingwu stomped his feet, knocked off the snow falling from his combat boots, and said, "No way, the strength of the Pangu Guild is still limited." What Shu County reminds us of has basically been done. Even if we knew today's situation in advance, the results were estimated to be limited. ”
Strength is limited!
The vice president's words touched Fu Chengjian's thoughts, and he turned his head and subconsciously glanced to the west.
It's a pity that under the leaden black clouds, the light is dim, and even with the lighting of torches, the west is still dark and dreary, and you can't see anything clearly.
"Wait." After another half-loud silence, Fu Chengjian spoke: "What we can and should do, we have done everything, and now we are just resigned to fate." Either the follow-up attack of the beast tide stops before midnight, or ...... Our alliance leader may be able to take the initiative to do something. ”
"Do you mean, send reinforcements?"
A trace of anticipation flashed in Wang Mingwu's eyes for a moment, but then it went out, shook his head and said, "It's not easy to talk about!" ”
The beast tide is attacking from all directions, but in this situation of heavy snow blocking the road, the Rescuer's Guild's control over the surrounding area will be greatly weakened. Even if they were strong enough to protect themselves, how could they dare to send reinforcements so easily?
What's more, almost all the members of the alliance are under attack.
Even if they really wanted to send reinforcements, why did they first aid the Pangu Guild located on the easternmost side of Chaohu Lake, instead of supporting the closer forces first?
Anyway, Wang Mingwu put himself in Fang Jin's position, and he would never give such an order.
Another gust of cold wind blew, mixed with Wang Mingwu's cold words, which made Fu Chengjian's heart even colder. He sighed again, and was about to say something, when suddenly his face changed.
Wang Mingwu also heard the voice and looked over with wide eyes.
At the end of the line of sight, a group of demonic beasts with at least two hundred of them could no longer resist the desire to attack, and tried to approach the dilapidated defense line.
"The beast tide has attacked!"
Several hall masters shouted in suppressed voices, urging their subordinates to enter the battle mode.
The priests, who had only recovered half of their mana, had no choice but to wave their staff to buff their teammates again. In order to conserve mana, some less important spells, or classes that had performed at the bottom of previous battles, have been secretly abandoned by them.
The mages in the back row, who were safe for the time being, also gave up protective spells such as air shields, and directly chanted practical attack magic such as ground thorns and ice arrows.
At the forefront are more than a dozen highly poisonous reptile lizards!
This kind of level 15 creature was encountered by Fang Jin and Xue Feifei when they went to Wuhu to explore the magic ruins.
Its strength is obviously nothing to the current Fang Jin. But for ordinary Pangu Guild members whose strength is at least two grades lower, the threat is very great. Dozens of meters away, a large stream of dark green venom with a pungent smell had already been sprayed.
The professionals who had suffered losses before immediately dodged in twos and threes.
Except for a few unlucky people who really couldn't hide from the screams of pain, the other classes managed to avoid the venom's killing range. It's just that by the time they regrouped to face the battle, the demonic beasts had already taken this opportunity to rush forward dozens of meters, very close to the defense line.
The mages and archers in the back row had already begun to strike from a distance at this time.
Under the faint light of the torches, a series of spell glows pierced the darkness and slammed into these demonic beasts that were not afraid of death.
Some of the demonic beasts were stopped or even killed by concentrated fire, but the demonic beasts behind took the opportunity to rush up and directly arrived under the defensive line.
The shield fighters, who had been waiting for the battle, immediately held their shields and met them.
This concrete defense line, which had made great achievements during the day, was already crumbling under the repeated impact of the demonic beast, and they didn't dare to let the demonic beast continue to move forward!
As a result, a fierce battle once again began in the southeast of Luozhou.
What Fu Chengjian wanted to see most was undoubtedly a repeat of the previous attack: the Warcraft found them difficult to deal with, so they continued to drag the corpse of the Warcraft that died in battle to retreat to share the food.
If they can be fed, maybe these demonic beasts that have lost their minds will retreat again.
Even if you can't, you can put it off again for a while.
But this time, the Pangu Guild's good fortune seems to have run out. Not only did the demonic beasts have no intention of stopping, but in the distance of the heavy snow, there were more strange sounds of demonic beasts.
Hundreds of demonic beasts came out of the darkness one after another, braving the light snow and rushing to the defense line.
"The last days, the last days!"
Fu Chengjian witnessed this scene, smiled bitterly, and joined the battle in person again.
It's just that in such a big battle, even Fang Jin's role is relatively limited, let alone a bronze-level mage whose strength is not as good as his?
Just when the situation was becoming more and more tense, the rear of the defense line and the direction of the city suddenly heard the faint roar of the convoy.
